It's just me, coming to you with some more boots-on-the-ground reporting...
I've been out on LI helping my elderly parents out with some stuff and took a little break to do some geocaching in Massapequa Park today. I haven't gone over there in a few years and it's far more overgrown than my brain remembered. I checked out Brady Park (where the woman who claims she was accosted on July 3rd by RH started her bike ride) and found an area that fits the “He had very dirty clothes on. He popped right out of the woods. Everywhere I went in the woods he would pop out somewhere,” description. It's where a few paved paths and dirt trails converge and a person could easily go unseen just feet away from the paths and "pop out" at you easily from multiple points and directions.
If the woman is correct, and the dirt smudged person who accosted her was Heuermann, my theory is that he was in these woods either scoping out a location for future "endeavors" or he was visiting something from his collection. There is an entrance to the park just down the street from his front door.
I would be shocked if Nassau/Suffolk/State PD would spend the money to have any cadaver dogs canvass this area. I'm taking a guess and going to say It's just not happening. Luckily (sarcasm), I already have chronic Lyme's Disease so I'm not afraid of ticks. I will bushwack and explore the area more in the near future once the dog days of summer pass.
Just want to add: I did not drive by the house out of respect for those still living there.
